There are probably several ways, but the way I do it is:
Near the top, after your version statement, add a \paper block:
\version "2.18.2"
\paper {
system-system-spacing #'padding = #2
}
\new Staff....
Adjust the value 2 to a value of your liking.
Another option is to let Lilypond auto-space the systems on the
page to fill the page. To do this, use this paper block instead
of the one above:
\paper {
ragged-last-bottom = ##f
}
